Subject: Re: ads can be ok
Couple of things:

1.  I haven't noticed much in the way of advertising on here since I've
been subscribed, except for Chris and his Abyss software.

2.  Even though Chris keeps everyone "informed" about his software, he also
contributes information to the list on a regular basis.  Some people like
his info, some do not, but information and opinions it is.

3.  I've never heard of Jim Greenlee until he popped his head up to start
pissing and moaning about advertising on techdiver.  Curiously, I notice
he's doing the same thing on rec.scuba (where I'm only looking for a
Haskell, o.k?  Don't give me shit.).

4.  Anyone stupid enough to try to use this group to blatantly advertise
some useless product would soon fall under the very accurate cross-hairs of
guys like Geo, et al.  Mike Severns would also send Kimo to deliver the
Hawaiian Death Grip to them.

5.  If ANYTHING on this list pisses you off, like advertising, or even
Pyle's insistence on discussing diving in pink lycra (or was that "Pinks"
lycra?), then you are free to delete the message, or unsubscribe, and
return to some crummy newsgroup that is so full of Spam it would feed the
7th Fleet for a year.

In other words, we really don't need a hall monitor, Jim.  Have a seat,
watch the show, talk about diving your new TransPac, whatever...
